The Seagull bar was on the corner of Lansing Ave. and South Conduit. It's name was changed to Pierre's in the mid to late '60's. There was a strip of stores there along South Conduit, a butcher shop I think called Louie's, Marie's candy store, a deli, I seem to remember a pet shop and a few other stores. I lived around the corner on Edgewood Ave. I never worked at Burger and Shake but I used to hang out there and we used to drink beer behind the Blum factory and then either go over to Green Acres or hop the drive-in fence to watch the movie.

Does anyone remember McCabes bar across from Manny's candy store? I heard, it was intentionally burned down for insurance money.

It wasn't far from Kilanes bar, near St. Clares Church.

McCabes was a great place to hang out, It burned down two or three times before it disappeared.

Rosedale Tavern always had some great looking girls there.

I also liked the Railroad Inn in Valley Stream.

The owner of that bar went on to own "Kate's Saloon" on Hook Creek Blvd. I knew her brother.

Noel was an awesome bartender. He went on to the Pit Stop, then Kate's Saloon. He also drove for Danny's for a while.

There was a Bar on Brookville near St. Clare's... what was it called? "Hueys" or something?

Kilanes. (The spelling might be wrong.)

Always struck me as odd that the Beacon Camp burned down with a firehouse directly across the street.

Anyone remember JR's Pub on 243rd?
